Biggest painting ever!


I just started painting the biggest painting ever! How big you ask? Well, the canvas was so big it didn't fit in the trunk of my poor Sentra. How did I get it home? A random painter between jobs stuffed it in his Ford truck! It was too funny. I'm painting a 36 x 60" picture of a VW Golf: it will have an almost cartoon like, Japanese art inspired background that has a somewhat skewed perspective. What I love about acrylic is how fast it dries, and its transparency like watercolour and its ability to be similar to oil paints in texture.
Here's the photo I'm working from.
